Was just listening to Windy on ESPN Radio. He said at this point, if Cavs offered Love, Indy would accept that trade in 5 minutes.Correct. The Pacers are now essentially forced to trade him for assets. They can't let him walk next off-season for nothing.
At the same time, no team is going to be unwilling to part ways with assets for a one year rental.
So he just drove down the asking price making it possible a team like the Cavs could swing a deal around TT, Osman, and potentially JR/Shumpert. The only way it's possible for Cavs to land a big 4 with George, was George working this angle.
In no way am I saying this deal gets done, but it's the start of the dominos we needed.
I should be clear, I don't think he was speaking from any inside knowledge. Just more so stating the position that Indy now finds themselves in.
